SHOW-CARD FOR EMBROIDERY $PEOIFICATION forming part of Letters PatentNo. 332,102, dated December 8, 1885. Application filed April 2, 1884.Serial No. 126,405. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, IsIDoR NETTBURGER, a citizen of the United States,residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have inventednew and useful Improvements in Show Cards for Embroidery and otherGoods, of which the followingis a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in devices for putting upembroidery, laces, and similar goods; and it consists in a portfoliomade of three connected sheets or flaps of pasteboard or other suitablematerial-namely, of an inner flap upon which the goods are Wound, anouter recessed flap or cover, in which recess or recesses the sample endis placed so as to be exhibited on the outside, and a bottom flap, theupper and lower flaps inclosing and protecting the goods wound upon theinner or middle flap.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of theportfolio without the lace or embroidery; Fig. 2, the same with thegoods upon it; and Fig. 3, a top View of the cover, showing the sampleend of the goods in the recessed part of the same.

Similarletters refer to similar out the several views.

A is the inner flap, B the outer flap or cover, and G the lower flap.The three flaps A, B, and G are flexibly connected or hinged on the linea b, so as to fold together and accommodate themselves to the ordinarythickness of the goods wound upon the middle flap, A. The inner flap, A,may be made shorter than the parts through outer flaps; but bypreference it is notched, as shown in the drawings at c d ef and g h iIr. The outer flap, B, is by preference recessed by providing it withslits land m, through which the sample end of the goods is passed,so asto exhibit it on the outside of the cover; but, instead of recessing theouter flap by slitting it in this manner, I may provide the end edges ofthe flap with recesses the same as those in the middle flap, A, as indotted lines, Fig. 1.

WVhen the portfolio is closed, the goods are well protected and thesample end is exhibited upon the top or outside.

If desired, the portfolio may be inclosed within a box or case, as in myLetters Patent No. 231,346; but such constitutes no essential feature ofthe present invention.

Having thus described my invention, What I claim is- A show-card forexhibiting embroidery and other goods, consisting of three hingedsheets, A, B, and 0, two of which constitute covers for the other sheet,on which the goods are wound, and one of the cover-sheets being recessedat two points for exhibiting the end portion of the goods, substantiallyas described.

In testimony whereot I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of twosubscribing witnesses.

ISIDOR NEUBURGER.
